The North Face Women's Stretch Down Vest

Gilets were created for in between season hikes. And early starts. And sunset finishes. Basically, whenever you cant decide whether or not to put on an insulating jacket you can put on an insulating gilet, and the Stretch Down Gilet is a particularly good choice. Thats because not only is it packed with 700-fill of responsibly-sourced down; its also because the durable nylon fabric features elastane, bringing a touch of restriction-free stretch to your insulating layer. Its also finished with a water-repellent treatment, so it shrugs off late spring snow flurries and summer showers. It features two zipped hand pockets and internal elasticated cuffs.
